Too fast!
Shen Shaokun initially wanted to comfort his brother and then leave quickly, but...
Clip-clop, clip-clop.
The sound of hooves resonated, echoing in his ears.
Although it was a normal sound, at this mont, to Shen Shaokun, it was like a thunderbolt, shocking him into a cold sweat.
Mu Gang not only appeared in person but also brought a hundred Silver Armored Guards.
Compared to these heavily armored soldiers, the people from the Southern Dipper Academy behind Shen Shaokun seed insignificant, unable to shoulder any responsibilities.
It was indeed true.
As the Silver Armored Guards drew nearer, everyone from the Southern Dipper Academy tensed up, heads lowered, trembling, not daring to make a move.
Beep!!
The horses ca to a halt.
In an instant, all those led by Shen Shaokun felt their hearts race.
Silent and reserved.
"We et again."
Chen Yang sat on horseback, smiling gently, "You asked to co, and now, I'm here."
A short sentence.
Yet to Shen Shaokun, it was like a deafening crash, making his scalp tingle.
"I, I..."
Shen Shaokun hesitated, instinctively looking at Shen Shaotian.
Shen Shaotian's eyes were cold, sneering.
Finally, he said with forced determination, "Misunderstanding, I think I can explain this..."
Chen Yang glanced at him and shifted his gaze to Shen Shaotian, but Shen Shaokun imdiately interjected, "The road was slippery from the rain, my brother accidentally fell, rest assured, as his elder brother, I will handle it well."
With this excuse, he distanced himself from any responsibility, emphasizing his kinship with Shen Shaotian, hoping for leniency.
His face was indeed thick.
Crack.
Chen Yang took out a cigarette. As he lit it, Shen Shaokun, who had been watching Chen Yang with hopeful eyes, was suddenly struck and sent flying several ters away.
"Explain then, how did he accidentally fall? Or do you want to demonstrate?"
"Cough, cough."
Blood oozed from Shen Shaokun's lips, his expression shocked and dreadful. He could clearly sense that Chen Yang's strength had grown since their last encounter.
This guy was simply monstrous.
Struggling to rise while coughing blood, Shen Shaokun dejectedly said, "I'm sorry, I was montarily blinded by hatred, please forgive ."
"Letting you go last ti was my mistake."
Shen Shaokun: "..."
With that, Chen Yang dismounted, walked to Shen Shaotian, and patted the rain off his shoulders, holding an umbrella over his head.
"Chen Yang."
Touched and sowhat embarrassed, Shen Shaotian said, "I thought I could handle my Southern Dipper Academy affairs, but I ended up troubling you."
"Shen Shaokun is really unreasonable!"
These words, though few, were filled with deep resentnt and a mix of hate and helplessness.
After all, they were brothers.
"No need to say so much." Chen Yang offered him a cigarette, lighting it, "We're good friends."
Siii!
Shen Shaotian took a deep drag and nodded, not saying anything more.
Shen Shaokun, now pretending to be relaxed, forced a smile, "Sorry for the disturbance, I won't stay longer, I have things to handle."
"You asked to co, I ca, and then?" Chen Yang said.
Shen Shaokun: "..."
"Those were just nonsense, please don't take them to heart."
As he was about to leave, Shen Shaokun's body abruptly froze, wiping cold sweat off his forehead, trembling all over. The whole Shisu Town was stirred because of Chen Yang's closeness to Princess Ling'er.
What kind of existence is Princess Ling'er? Even given a hundred tis the courage, Shen Shaokun dared not ntion revenge, knowing Chen Yang's ruthless nature might lead to truly drastic asures.
Moreover, with a top expert like Mu Gang present, even if his father ca, he'd have to apologize willingly.
The urgent priority was to escape quickly.
"If I had co late today, are you saying you'd cut up to feed the dogs?"
Chen Yang's tone was indifferent, adding, "The only reason you're alive today is because of Shen Shaotian, yet it seems you still want to kill him?"
Shen Shaokun: "..."
"Chen Yang, you're lucky to be connected to the City Lord's Mansion, but if you want to stand firm in Yuning Mountain, you'll have to rely on yourself. You're just a person from the mundane world, you better stop while you're ahead!"
A steward from the Southern Dipper Academy behind Shen Shaokun roared with anger, "Do you really think our Southern Dipper Academy is powerless?"
Used to his lofty position berating others, this steward nad Lu Chao sneered darkly, "The City Lord's Mansion might protect you for a while, but can it protect you forever?"
With these words, Shen Shaokun slightly cald, his gaze turning cold.
Indeed, upon reflection, it was true.
"Shut up!"
Feigning scolding, Shen Shaokun glared at Lu Chao and then smiled at Chen Yang, "My subordinate ant no offense, don't mind! Since you all have matters, I'll take my leave first."
He still wanted to retreat, there's no need to confront head-on today.
"Hmph!"
Mu Gang, who had been silent, spoke with a smile that didn't reach his eyes, "Mr. Chen is a distinguished guest of Princess Ling'er, what, are you intending to harm him?"
Lu Chao: "..."
Distinguished guest?
Just days ago, Chen Yang had killed a squad of Silver Armored Guards, and today he's a distinguished guest?
This steward sensed sothing was amiss, hastily bent over as if to bow down and apologize.
Clang!!
A chilling gleam suddenly appeared, and Lu Chao instinctively raised his arm to block.
Under everyone's astonished gaze, he tumbled to the ground.
Everyone saw clearly, it was Chen Yang.
However, the sword he held had only been drawn three inches.
"This..."
Shen Shaokun was utterly dumbfounded, his vision blurring, as he involuntarily knelt, trembling and pleading, "I'm sorry, I truly realize my mistake."
"Your apology is not accepted," Chen Yang said.
The next second.
"Shaotian!!"
Shen Shaokun suddenly turned around, eyes filled with horror, desperately shouted at Shen Shaotian, "Please plead for , I'm your second brother!"
"If I die here today, have you thought about how to explain to grandpa?"
Shen Shaotian, expressionless, said, "I'll report truthfully."
Shen Shaokun: "..."
Swish.
Another chilling gleam flashed.
Shen Shaokun fell to the ground clutching his neck, his pupils gradually dilating. Even in his wildest dreams, he never imagined such a grim end after all his display.
Blood was washed away by the rain, dissolving into nothingness.
Hundreds of Southern Dipper Academy mbers, remained silent, without any action.
Mu Gang glanced at Chen Yang, finally feeling a direct appreciation for this young man's ruthless decisiveness.
"Mr. Chen, can we now proceed to et my lady?" Mu Gang spread his hands, smiling gently.
"..."
